My first question, should I just fork out the cash for a second Sentry, so I can have two Noise Gates in my chain? Something to kill the white noise of the Comp, EQ and OD before the amp, and then use my current one to kill the noise of the amp? Or would my current setup of just the OD before, and then the comp and eq be fine in the effects loop? If I understand what you're asking, solving a problem like this is the purpose of the loop on the Sentry, right? You want the control signal from early in your chain, but the processed signal late in the chain. So, insert it near the beginning, then run the Sentry's loop to the noisy part of your chain, including your amp. That way the output from the Sentry will be late in your chain even though its input is early in the chain. -------------------- Cyber-industrial music and video animations:

@Rammikin Soooo... I have tried what you suggested. I put the Sentry behind the OD, then ran it to the amp. The effects loop came back to the Sentry, but then it made my guitar tones clean. Like... sparkly clean. Cleaner than the 6505 has ever sounded. So I donno what happened there. It sounds like you've accidentally excluded the amp from the Sentry's loop. And the Sentry needs to go before your OD, not after. Take a moment to carefully make sure you've got it set up right, but this really is the best way to use a noise gate. Much better than using two noise gates. If you can't get it working, post a detailed diagram of your cabling so someone can help you. -------------------- Cyber-industrial music and video animations:
